Hi Marc, So you're using ACPI on your notebook? I tried that too, but, then the battery indicator's gone from systray. Previously I used apmd, so I tried to run it, but it seemed that when we chose ACPI, linux erased apmd. I don't know why. Also, what is the different between ACPI and apmd? I use apmd now. About the fan, in my Acer TM802LCi, it doesn't always run, but more often that if I'm in windows.
